The reason why I got mine was because I saw your ba le and knew I had to have one like that It works just great with gaoshanThe other one seems to be of a more porious clay, moothening down those high fire flavours and improving mouthfeel. According to Silentchaos, it'll change a lot over the next few months.

The one to the right was your pot in unused condition. The one to the left was my personal pot after 1 month of feeding on sheng. The exterior of both pots were wiped clean before the picture was taken (i.e. no tea stains).

My rather humble yixing family. Starting from back left is 150ml xishi from Sunsing HK ($50), 150ml with carved words from Chintown ($10), 70ml xishi from Jing ($100) and than my newest 100ml also from Chintown ($10). My favorite is the xishi from Jing because i think its well made but its just a tiny bit too small for me. I prefer 100ml so i like my newest piece even though its not as nice as one from Jing's. I want to buy a 100ml shuiping of nicer quality next possibly from Jing or sampletea.
